[svlug] Monitor just turns off!!!

[Paul Jasa]

Help!!   This is SO annoying!!   In an attempt to make my monitor stay ON, I
have tried it all:
1) xset -dpms
2) check the BIOS
3) check the Gnome settings
And still, my monitor turns goes on a blank stand-by after about 5 minutes
of bieng still......    Not even my expert linux friend has been able to
figure this one out.   Can someone toss in any other advice???   I have two
boxes doing the identical thing:
One is a REd Hat 7
One is a Suse 7.1
I would like to keep the screen-saver running forever!!!!  Thank you in
advance for your help.
Paul
